SHE WAS KIND AND ALWAYS TREATED MARLENE & I LIKE HER OWN CHILDREN. MAMA WAS SICK A LOT WHEN MY YOUNGER SISTER WAS BORN AND I REMEMBER STAYING WITH AUNT AGNES & UNCLE CARL FROM TIME TO TIME AND IF IT RAINED WITH THUNDER & LIGHTENING IN THE NIGHT SHE WOULD GET US OUT OF BED AND MAKE US SIT IN THE HALL. THEY HAD LIGHTENING RODS ON THE HOUSE. WHILE VISITING HER IN 1996 I ASKED HER IF SHE STILL HAD THEM ON THE HOUSE AND SHE SAID "SHIRLEY THOSE ARE OLD FASHIONED". DON'T YOU KNOW THAT?
